Most authors ensure their imagined destinations are a dream getaway for their audience; often neglected yet a crucial component of any plot is set planning/setting.
Blue Balliett cherished all of her described settings in all of her books so far. To illustrate, in The Wright 3, she hasn’t really portrayed a major fascinating setting other than a few famous cities, an ordinary neighborhood and a couple of wild action spots; yet, all the places mentioned in the book hold something really special in store for the reader.
The entire story is based in Hyde Park, Chicago; being a Balliett book; the author has once again chosen an artistic landmark based in Chicago. The entire climax revolves around this unique architectural building inspired by the immensely popular prairie style- The Robie House. Tommy, one of the investigators unites along with his friends from New York; hence, he definitely has a major Northern touch to all his habits and analogies! The neighborhood remains the same throughout all Balliett books; Hyde Park- a small yet eccentric neighborhood always lurring tension and art mysteries toward it; especially if Petra and Calder get involved.
The Robie House, is actually the key location for all the action and exaggerated drama in the narrative; a very steep climax point; the trapping and capturing of the three protagonists take place here. The children are found “supervising” the locality around this architecture; the most and most of the hidden artistic codes are revealed in this space.
Most readers tend to exclude the importance of setting in this entire story; however, the brave trio factually takes up an adventure with many boulders verily in order to prevent the demolishment of The Robie House.
Despite, the adventure and sarcasm in this story has been accentuated by leaps and bounds; most readers can only dream of being involved in a lifetime crime and an unusual art mystery.
